Wingers and centres excellent doing hard yards early in the sets. Forwards been great stopping Samoa getting any field position until the last 10/15 or so. Need to wrap up the ball and stop the offloads are that will kill us. Frustrating that Welsby through the interception pass, it worked twice that side already and with The Hammer off injured i'd still be targetting that side as it'll be disjointed.

We do need to take advantage of the field position we had. Samoa surely won't be as bad in the second half as they were in the first half.

England kicking game not all that.

Well, that will shut a few of the miserable plebs up on here.

I see your rugby league knowledge is as accurate as ever.

Pretty damned good from England. Williams certainly justified his selection. Welsby good with ball in hand, kicking not so much. Outside backs all impressive too.

The doom mongers will no doubt be focusing on the St James' Park PA system.

The pivots of Tomkins, Williams and Welsby worked very well and fed our outside backs with quality plays.
Thought our weakness at times was at no 9 with distribution, when Ridley went there we looked better and we started to pile on the points.

Good confidence booster that for the team and Wane.

On a side note I thought the Samoa coach Parish looked as though he had just got out of bed and had a sleepy look about him.

Isn't there a Train Station in Leeds?

Aussie shirt numbers.
Bunch of lovers, as ever.

Thought Fiji started the game well! Gave the Aussie’s a bit of a scare but then a silly defensive read put Addo-Carr away. After that, the Aussie’s were too good. However they don’t look unbeatable like they used too. Even though they do have the Penrith lads to come back.
